Just sways....

I've read a lot about how upgrading sways can dramatically help the handling of the. But everyone who has upgraded sways has done it with shocks and srpings / coil overs as well.
Is there anyone who has only done the sways without any other suspension mods.

I've recently been told that sways should be the last thing that gets upgraded as far as suspension mods are concernened..


any thoughts??

Upgrading just the sways does make a big difference to the cars handling , lf you go for the whitelines make sure you get the upgraded ones for the RX8

The single most thing that will improve the handling of your car is Tires. That said, the second is the sway bars. Yes, you can change sway bars with out doing springs and shocks. Doing so will keep the compliant ride the car presently has (good or bad) and improve the attitude of the car during cornering.
